What do I do now, now that I have seen the light 30.11.2002
Have you accepted Jesus as your savior ?
If you are a child of God already then you have made your choice 1Joh.5:11-13
If you have not made the commitment then you have two choices Matt.25:46
If you have not made the commitment and you die then it is to late Dan.12:2
You can choose between Heaven and Hell ÔÇô who's Heaven and who's Hell ÔÇô it belongs to Gods
If your name is not in the Book of life then you will be hurled into the lake of fire Rev.20:15
If it's too late you can't change it Luk 13:23-28. Luk 16:19-31
Jesus made a promise when He went back to heaven , that was that he will return someday , but why is He taking so long ?
Jesus will come as He promised Mat. 24: 30 & 31
Unbelievers will say " What about Jesus and His promise ?" 2Pet.3: 3&4
Why is He actually taking His time ? 2Pet.3: 9&15
He loves us all too much and wishes all men to be saved
1Tim 2:3&4
Can we predict that day ?
That day is not known to anyone but God Himself 2Pet. 3:10 ,
We must be ready and make sure that our loved ones are ready Luk 17:20-37
God has a plan for our salvation – Jesus – Acts 17:30
How do we fit into God's plan ?
We were born for one reason only ÔÇô To glorify and exalt our God (Parker pen)
We have the "Owners Handbook for our life " ÔÇô The Bible
We must grow spiritually
How do I start ?
Tell people about your new life ÔÇô Story of the passenger in the train
Begin to live your life according to the word
The joy you have in spite of what you are going through ÔÇô your circumstances
People must see the change in you ├ö├ç├┤ Francis of Assisi said "Go out and preach the Gospel and if all else fails ├ö├ç├┤ speak – Story of the campus Christians
How do you react when the world expects from you to do otherwise
The way you speak ÔÇô make a point not to use bad language
The way you treat other people ÔÇô like you would have them treat you
The way you help others ÔÇô to give is better than to receive
The way you tolerate nagging issues ÔÇô the fruit of the spirit
Gal 5:22
Start learning about Jesus ÔÇô You will begin to want to know more ÔÇô develop a hunger for the Word and then you'll want to tell people about the Good News. (My first evangelical experience),
We must be obedient to His word and complete the great commission Mat 24:31, Mark 16:15, Luk 24:45-47
We must tell others about the Good News ÔÇô Jesus uses our mouths for His work Mark 16:15, Luk 24:47 . If one new person accepts Jesus as his savior then there is great joy in Heaven Luk 15:8-10
We must be part of the solution , not part of the problem !
Teach others so that they can intern tell others 2 Tim. 1:2 & 7
His Word teaches us :
We are the salt of the earth ( Give people salt , make them thirsty) Luk 5:13
We are the light of the world ( Shine the light so all can see, don't hide it.) Luk 5:14-16
The Word is a lamp for our path to show the way (Light in the dark room)
Sow the seed . (Some one else will water it ) 1Kor.3:6
As a Christian I ought to:
Do as the Bible says.
Learn what it teaches
Believe what it promises
Trust the Holy Spirit always to help us in doing so.(Story about Alwyn)
You will gradually grow stronger & stronger and gather more courage
As a Christian you have a responsiblelity to unbelievers
When you get to Heaven one day God will not ask you to explain what sin you committed on 1 November 2002. no He will ask you only one thing and that is " What did you do for Me My child?" and if you did nothing then you will have to please explain why not.
